In this article framing the special issue on the global school strikes for climate, we ask: what if education is not the solution, but part of the system young people want to change?

The "School Strike 4 Climate" is a timely opportunity for education and research sectors to support youth stories in climate change policy, and foster impactful relationships between researchers, teachers and students.

We suggest that taking school…
